Got a bowl there recently using an app called Too Good To Go. Bowl was good and it definitely was nice to eat healthy on that app for a change. Only bummer is staff wouldn't make the food until the pickup time, so I had to sit there a bit. Not sure how much a bowl goes for usually so not sure I'll be heading back anytime soon, but tasty for what it was. read more

Delicious healthy meal. Quick and affordable. The staff are very helpful and nice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is nice as well[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

I came here with my wife and kiddos. I really like the experience they offer by picking out your own food. God bless them!

I have been making a point of visiting as many businesses I can during COVID that I've received free perks from in the past. About a year ago, I was honored to be invited to Honest Mary's soft opening, and since I was donating blood about three minutes away yesterday on North Lamar (and they always say to make your next meal a big one!), I dropped in here for an iron-rich bowl. Everything I remembered from my last visit is still true today -- generous portions of super fresh, healthy food. I ordered the Sedona Lime bowl with steak. The combination of sweet potato, rice, fresh spinach, black beans, pumpkin seeds and perfectly seasoned steak topped with a creamy lime sauce was exactly what I needed. It was so much food that I divided it up and had a second lunch today. read more

Honest Mary's - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

I was in and out of this place quickly; I usually go to the one on research but this was in my area at the time. I just went in, ordered, paid, and left. First time visiting. Parking wasn't bad. Staff was really friendly and generous. Food was delicious! The vibe inside was very relaxed. read more

This meal was stellar! So so Fresh and I loved the make your own bowl. I thought the sauces were delicious. I got two so I could try a couple different flavors. I got the sesame, some thing and lime cream some thing and they were both super Duper good. I ate them in two separate meals because the bowl was so packed. It had a basmati rice base, brussels sprouts, broccoli, roasted chickpeas, steak, cucumber salad and goat cheese. It was super delicious and I actually can't wait to get it again! read more

Honest Mary's - Build your own bowl - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

First time ordering through Uber eats and I am missing both of my dressings (I paid extra for one). Uber eats said they can't do anything about it. The mushrooms are not the same ones I ordered at the mueller location and do not taste as good. read more

Love this place. I have this once or twice a week for dinner and I never get sick of it.. my husband teases me that I'm obsessed. I build my own bowl with spinach, white rice, chicken, corn, sweet potatoes, goat cheese, apples, and apple cider vinaigrette. The dressing is so good, I always wish I had a little more. Staff is kind, friendly and quick. The dining area is always clean as well. If you are looking for a healthy but also really tasty meal, this is one of the best options in Austin. Also so affordable. read more

Look, I'll say it because it's important & someone needs to: Don't go to Ch*potl*, go to Honest Mary's. Looking for a quick lunch on the go? Go to Honest Mary's. Craving a hearty, brightly colored, protein & fiber-packed meal to warm the frozen cockles of your heart? Go to Honest Mary's. One time, I ordered my go-to (grilled chicken, wild arugula, charred broccoli, lemony kale, avocado, and Texas goat cheese) & as soon as I paid and made my way to the exit I guess a gust of wind must have blown me off kilter because my food flew everywhere. The staff didn't scoff & frankly they had every right to; instead, they were kind, calm, and before I knew it, I was out the door with another bowl of food. read more

I'm committed to going back and trying this place again and will update the review accordingly. But there's just some factors I can't get past, thus I wanted to write the initial review ASAP. I was pretty elated that this was coming into my neighborhood, quick little walk over and boom, I'm stuffing my face full of a bowl of healthy goodies. Who wouldn't want that? Nicely designed space, pleasant staff members which did a great job explaining everything. Here we go with the Food.... Ordered the Aloha Poke bowl, no modifications besides asking for extra Jalapeños - I'm always in need of spicy everything. The fish wasn't edible, extremely chewy/tough... Fatty (not in the good way). A few bites you could tell were past their prime and if you let say Mackerel sit out, that's the rancid profile you would get. Other ingredients in the bowl were fine, but not sure how you could really mess those up preparation wise etc... bottom line - ended up throwing half the bowl out. Like I said, I will totally go back and try the steak bowl most likely - and update the review immediately after. But bad fish is bad fish, and I want this place to rock since I can walk on over for lunch. Hope this place picks their game up! Fingers crossed. Update to follow... read more

I've had Honest Mary's in my bookmarks for a pretty long time now, so I was glad to finally go and cross it off my list. I really didn't like the food. I'm a huge fan of similar healthy places like Flower Child, but Honest Mary's didn't do it for me. The bowl was extremely underwhelming. I got poke, and it didn't taste very fresh at all. I also dislike how they only allow you to get one sauce, and it was impossible to try beforehand. The sauce I got didn't go with my bowl, and I ended up leaving over half of it uneaten. It seems like Honest Mary's has a decent following, but I wouldn't come back. It's not worth the price, and I can get better healthy food elsewhere. It definitely is a cute space, though. read more

I'm not sure what I would change about my visit or what I ordered, so that's why we're at 5 stars. My friend said "Honest Mary's never disappoints". We got the Aloha Poke and ordered online on our way to pick up. The restaurant was not open due to COVID, so they had our food sitting in a bag with the door open. I just walked up, took my food, and left. Was there less than a minute which makes it a perfect on-the-go stop. This meal was delicious and it fills you up. Given the healthfulness of the food, and ingredients packed with nutrients, you're full but not stuffed and bloated afterwards. I love knowing I'm eating organic, gluten and dairy free, and overall just quality food. That's worth the money to me. Also hand-line caught Ahi Tuna makes a lot of difference. And, we got their Agua Fresca (Cucumber Honey) and my friend said "it's the best I've ever had." Thanks for quality, HM! read more

Honest Mary's - Aloha Poke - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

My family and I are so obsessed with this restaurant. They serve nothing but the best bowls with high quality ingredients. It is like a healthy version of a create your own chain restaurant. There was plenty of parking when we decided to go for lunch on a Sunday. The portions are great. I decided to get the poke bowl and was not disappointed whatsoever. My mom made a custom bowl and it was very savory. I will definitely be back for more. read more

A tastier and local option if you are into build-your-own bowl meals. The grilled chicken is naturally raised and you can definitely taste the difference. I am a fan of quinoa and their tri-colored quinoa is a great base. They have other base options such as basmati rice or forbidden rice. If you are looking to cut carbs, they have spinach and arugula. You can mix and match additional bases for $1 more. They also have a good selection of sides and toppings. My favorites are the roasted brussels sprouts and Asian slaw. As for the dressing, they are all good. I recently tried the apple cider vinaigrette and was pleasantly surprised that it had a creamy texture; more like a dipping sauce. They even have a couple of kombuchas on tap - or if you want something harder - I did see a couple of wines and coffee on tap. The inside looks great and there is some solo seating by the window so you can look out into the neighborhood. They even have an outdoor patio if you want more of an alfresco environment. As for recycling, I applaud that their bowls are compostable. In fact, they have signs by the trash to let you know which bin to put the compostables in. read more

Excellent. Excellent. Excellent. Thank you for getting my order right. Thank you for the fresh ingredients. Thank you for the great prices. I made a chicken arugula bowl with roasted beets, baby bella mushrooms, goat cheese, and crispy chickpeas with lemon garlic dressing. It tastes healthy, light, and delicious at the same time. Didn't need to order extra dressing. Love it. read more

Remarkably delicious bowls. I ordered online. Even with the complex bowl, it was easy to get the order correct. Food was delicious. Will put them on the repeat list. read more

Edit: giving it a 5/5 now I love their healthy delicious food way too much now after 3 visits.

Restaurant reviews are more challenging in pandemic times. This one is a few months dated (October-ish), but still relevant. It is so far a one-outing experience. As part of a socially-distanced dinner at a friends house, I picked up dinner from Honest Mary's. Really impressed with the food being bagged, clearly marked, and already waiting outside when I arrived a couple minutes early. That's like next-to-zero risk. Points for all-organic and hormone-free ingredients for starters. I ordered a chicken-based BYOB with black forbidden rice, roasted carrots, sliced avocado, and black beans. The food was very wholesome, but light on flavor. I did expect the order to fill the bowl more than it did (less than half-full by volume). Also, I must admit the chicken portion was a tad on the skimpy side. Very safe dining experience and I totally look forward to going back here again someday. read more

Everything I wanted/expected: healthy, fast service, aesthetic, and delicious. Had the golden ponzu w/ chicken and it was super tasty, chicken was moist, sauce was tangy, a little acidic and matched the ingredients well. I'm interested in coming back and trying the rest of the bowls read more

So this was my second time visiting an HONEST MARYS establishment and the first time was at a different location and unfortunately it was not a great experience but the food was so good I had to try again! Let me tell y'all the food was perfection as expected, but the customer service really brought everything together and it was appreciated the way the entire staff was considerate and just kind in our visit! If you are ever looking for a delicious, healthy, and fulfilling spot for lunch then stop in to Honest Mary's! read more

I love honest Mary's! It is an order at the counter as you select your options type model with lots of healthy selections. It's great that you can build your own bowl or choose a signature bowl. The restaurant itself is very cute. I've also done takeout multiple times and it's always ready on time and just as tasty. They also serve beer, wine and fresh juices. Parking can be tight but swing around back to find additional spots (towards pressed). read more

Honest Mary's - Summer BLT bowl + Sedona lime bowl, chicken added to both - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

Poor Honest Mary's. They opened up in Burnet like about one week before coronavirus hit. Some things just aren't fair. Fortunately, management seems to have deep enough pockets to keep everything afloat on a takeout only basis until this dammed plague is over. I personally hope Honest Mary's lives. * * * Most Yelp readers will already know the deal with Honest Mary's. If not, I can fill you in. Healthy food. Build your own bowl. Every kind of protein you can think of. (Obnoxious Yelper from Houston: What about Yak meat?) (Noise in the background while we send Obnoxious Yelper off to do a review of a Dairy Queen at the South Pole.) Where was I? Every kind of protein you can think of. Every kind of healthy vegetable you can think of. Lots of healthy grains and sauces. Build whatever bowl you like. If you are feeling too tired to bowl-design, management has a number of standard-formula bowls. The standard-formula bowls are lovely stuff. Honest Mary's is always simple healthy comfort food. Your body is grateful for the kind attention. Your cardiologist gives you a big thumbs up. You feel well fed and cozy and secure. The world is a good place. * * * Typically Honest Mary's is not the stuff of ecstatic destination eating. This is not a destination vegan restaurant such as you might find in Philadelphia or Prague. This is Mom's chicken soup as opposed to cosmic experience in your mouth. I like Mom's chicken soup. But there is one notable decadent exception. (Heh heh heh!) There is exactly one dessert on the menu. It is an almond butter cookie with maldon salt. At first you think your cookie is moldy because it has suspicious big white flecks on the surface. Don't worry. This is just the salt. Eat the cookie. (Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!) You may have been good and pious all through your vegetable bowl. There is NOTHING pious about that almond cookie. This is your bad but irresistible boyfriend putting his hands where they are not supposed to be. * * * So eat your vegetables and you can have dessert. And frankly, you will have a perfectly fine time eating your vegetables. read more

Honest Mary's is my go-to for veggie-filled takeout. They have salad and poke bowls that are good on their own, or you can add protein (tofu, chicken, steak). The space is cute and they have kombucha and beer on tap, as well as an outdoor patio. It's a little pricey, but the portions are big. read more

We're big fans of Honest Mary's, but every time we're in the Burnet area, we usually go across the street to another favorite restaurant. Finally decided to check this location out and we loved it! There was no line, staff were super friendly, parking is easy, and I love to take my daughter to the kid's clothing store next door. Wins all around. The Sedona Lime Bowl is our favorite. My 18 month old eats more of it than I do. It's probably her favorite meal from a restaurant! My husband always gets the golden beets bowl. Love the commitment to quality ingredients -- even down to their cleaning supplies. read more

when they get it right boy is it good! but shooooot they get it wrong about half the time so disappointing read more

Love this place! They use high-quality ingredients and everything is prepared with care. I can't seem to order anything beyond the Aloha Poke and the Golden Grains w/tofu as they are both truly delicious. The atmosphere is light and welcoming and service is always so pleasant. Highly recommend for a quick, healthy, filling meal! read more

Love the new location! Pros: *I personally love grain bowls. They're like a salad served warm, but somehow way more filling. Kind of like how a smoothie bowl is more filling than a smoothie even though it's basically the same thing. *Tons of healthy options. It's set up Chipotle style, except instead of high sodium burrito fillings, it's mostly lean proteins, grains and veggies. *I like that they put the dressing on the side by default. Everyone's dressing preferences are personal. It lets me be me. Cons: *Price is the obvious place you'll notice a difference from similar assemble-as-you're-ordering restaurants. They're mostly organic, but you'd have to skip the protein (Farmer's Market bowl) to keep your meal under $10 before drink. On the plus side, they do 5 Stars rewards, so bonus freebies if you're a regular. Also, it's cashless, which I view as neither pro nor con, because I rarely pay with cash unless there's a discount over credit, such as at the occasional liquor store. I've seen several cities start to ban cashless restaurants, which I personally don't understand. Are they going to ban Uber because you can only pay through the app? Austin tried that once, how'd it turn out? read more

We felt extremely full (and healthy) after eating our bowls from Honest Mary's last night. These bowls were stuffed with protein, veggies, and toppings, with enough options to satisfy all different types of eaters. All of the veggies tasted extremely fresh - I tried their beets, squash, and edamame. Pro tip - definitely take a look at the menu before you go, because I spent a lot of time in line ordering, trying to pick the right combo of things (thankfully it was pretty empty when we visited and no one was behind me)! OR - pick one of their signature bowls, which are really nice mixes of all their best ingredients. My partner loved his Seasonal Signature Bowl which had butternut squash, lentils, and kale. read more

Honest Mary's - Build your own bowl - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

Not bad. Restaurant is cute and has its aesthetic to a T. The food was not bad. The portions/ratios of the various bowl components felt unproportional. I got the poke bowl and the guy just dumped a ridiculous amount of slaw and almost half a head of pickled onion in my bowl. The photo is after I picked off most of it and put it to the side. Didn't expect the tuna to be amazing, so i already knew that it wouldn't be top tier fresh fish. Couldve made the slices for the tuna slightly smaller. They were slightly too big to eat in a bite. I could tell staff was still getting used to the flow of things. Some were kind of getting trained while we were ordering. Also, an extra scoop of tuna in my bowl was $5. It felt steep for really not that much more. And price for meat extras were not listed on the menu as far as I saw. read more

Honest Mary's is a great restaurant and business. We pick up their delicious bowls at least once a week. We always love the fresh ingredients and flavor. What really stood out for me is that last time my husband was dissatisfied. He had requested no arugula , goat cheese and something else. That evening the person who made it gave us a minimal bowl not adding more of the other ingredients. I sent in a review. They were amazing. Sent us a gift card and totally apologized. I really was impressed with that business model. Kudos to Honest Mary's for making it right. We will always be your faithful customers. read more

The bowls are super tasty, and I was especially impressed with the tofu. I have never had tofu before and this was a great place to try it. I got a build your own bowl with 1/2 arugula, 1/2 spinach, mushrooms, Brussels, avocados and goat cheese. Also got a half ginger lemonade, 1/2 berry drink. Everything was good, but honestly I couldn't justify spending $15. I think people could make the food at home pretty easily, so it's just if you are willing to spend money for convenience! read more

So, I made a delivery to this place the other day, and I walked in, and it smelled so good and the staff was friendly, so I decided to go here for lunch a couple of days later. Bottom line... The food is really really good, but the overall experience I would only give three stars because of the following: between the noise in the kitchen, the music playing, the masks that the staff are wearing, and the Plexiglass, I couldn't hear a word anyone was saying to me behind the line. Anytime someone spoke to me I had to ask them self to repeat what they said the second or third time. Also, we wanted beer or wine with our lunch and were told that they didn't have either. As it turned out, they did have one beer available, so my wife got it. I wanted wine, but they didn't have any, even though they advertise that they have wine, so I had a iced tea instead. But the food was absolutely outstanding. We both got the poblano bowl, and all of the ingredients were fresh and delicious. I would return to this place, but next time I would order takeout. read more

I ordered lunch through a food delivery app! This food is bomb! So fresh. All the food was healthy and looked great!

We opted for delivery from this spot while in Austin. We both made our own bowls. Mine was chicken with quinoa, sweet potatoes, black beans etc. While I enjoyed most of the bowl, I was disappointed to see that they used dark meat chicken. I wish the menu disclosed exactly what they use to avoid such disappointment. Also the $2 charge for tomatoes with mint wasn't worth it. The tomatoes weren't ripe. $15 just seemed to high for what I received. read more

I mean my bowl was good but the chicken was disappointing. It was dark chicken and didn't seem that fresh - kind of like chipotle whereas at Sweetgreen the chicken is white meat and fresh read more
